So that the seeds of marigolds sprout for 2-3 days, what to do
We sow marigolds for seedlings in a cake lid or in another transparent container. With this method, the seeds will sprout in 2-3 days. In another way, marigolds are called Chernobrovtsy.
I really love these flower crops, I collect the seeds myself, sow them every year. It can be sown in the spring and into the ground, but they will sprout later than with the seedling method. Marigold flowers are unpretentious, but if you want the flowers to decorate the garden early, sow seedlings, so that they can then be planted in open ground.
whatrequired
cake box;
marigold seeds;
sprayer;
boiling water;
soil mixture.
howto do
Pour earth into the lid from under the cake (one fifth of the volume).
The soil should be soft, airy. I use purchased land from the store. It can be mixed halfway with calcined river sand. The surface of the ground must be crushed with your hands so that it becomes even.
Then you need to boil the water and spill the soil a little to disinfect it. If the land has been treated in advance, you can simply moisten it with warm water from a spray bottle.
Next, you need to take the seeds and scatter a thin layer over the soil surface. You do not need to sprinkle it with earth.
From above, it is necessary to spray the seeds abundantly with water, but so that they do not float there.
Then you need to cover the lid with a film and put it in a warm place not lower than +25 degrees.
You do not need to remove the film until the seeds are fully grown. When shoots appear after a few days, the film must be removed and the container must be placed in a bright place.
After planting in the ground, starting from mid-May, if the weather permits, the seedlings will quickly grow.
These seedlings will be enough not only for you, but also for friends and neighbors.
